MATH
In math we are learning how to count on using a number line. Please practice using a number line instead of using our fingers to add. If you don't have a number line at home, a great resource is a ruler. Have your child use the inch side of the ruler to count forward. Have fun practicing your math facts!


"Short O Sound"
We are working on the "short O" sound in first grade. To help us remember what sound "short O" makes, we have a special hand signal. We make the "OK" sign with our fingers and put it in front of our mouths. While waving our three standing fingers, we say "O, O, Octopus." Have your child demonstrate for you. It is a cute one!

Fall Colors Book
Your child will be bringing home a book about fall colors. Please help them read it. It is something we have been working on in class and they are very proud of their books. With reading, it is also fun to focus on the rhyming words in the story. Enjoy!
